The Red Coral Necklace A
story about red coral
Years
ago I had a motorcycle accident. Actually it was more of a tumble,
the bike just slipped over and sat on me. This didn't really
matter except the kick stand was where it was supposed to be
and my leg wasn't. This conflict in the status quo involved the
kick stand cutting into my leg. Three days later, after surgery,
I had a whole lot more respect for motorcycles. I lay in
bed and was coming to the realization that my normally fiery
constitutional resilience to injury just wasn't strutting its
stuff and that this injury could take more than quite a while
to heal. Visualization would have helped, but the area was already feeling pretty dead, and my consequent negative mindset would have had to be overcome. I lay in bed for quite some time evaluating my body's resources. With this accident, its recuperating resources didn't seem to be anything close to my younger days, when a deep wound was just a scratch. Because of my studies and interest in gems, I hobbled out of bed and reached for a red coral necklace to see if it would be of help. Strangely enough, at the time I didn't feel that it would help much, except on a subtle level. The next few minutes were genuinely a big shock to my understanding. The
previous hour my wound had had a distinctly cold clammy feel
to it. A sense pervaded that nothing was happening in the metabolic
arena and recovery was going to take ages. Upon putting on the
red coral, almost immediately I could feel a comfortable surge
of warmth and circulation of energy surrounding and intelligently
permeating the wounded area. I was stunned to be witnessing something
so tangible. I was dimly aware that I had read that red coral
was good for wounds or internal bleeding. It was this profound
experience, and many other testimonials that was to inspire me
to promote and advertise the wonderful power of Vedic gems to
anyone who would listen in later years. These days, if I put on red coral while I'm in a fine fettle, I may, within a day or so, start feeling too warm in the area of the necklace. The proper use of the red coral necklace Red coral represents Mars in Vedic astrology and, hence, is hot to warming in influence. Too much heat will imbalance me, but for a person with more cold influences in their horoscope, a red coral necklace could be much more comfortable to wear for longer periods. Rarely would I recommend that it be worn constantly. If the wearer is old and living in a very cold climate, more extensive use could be helpful. From extensive feedback over the years, red coral appears to help boost the energy of people who are run down. A person living in a cold climate will be more receptive to its heating benefits than the same person dwelling in a tropical climate. Many friends have been amazed by red coral's effect on their colds, coughs and flus. Often I have recommended it to people having surgery and have had them thank me profusely for what they perceive to be its speeding up of their healing processes. Surprising as it may seem, I used to keep a red coral necklace beside the bed in winter, and if I got too cold, I would throw on red coral instead of another blanket. I generally always take one when I leave sunny California for colder climes. There are many coral imitations on the market, especially in necklace form, mostly from China and India. These include ceramic glass, white coral or horn dyed red and plastic. Observation indicates that for short-term remedial benefits of specific problems, a coral necklace of over 80 carats is best (it is this much because each bead is so small). I often recommend keeping one in the medicine cabinet. Characteristics of good coral necklaces Before most people can appreciate the way this electromagnetic instrument can help them, they will need to understand some parameters of its application. The weight of the Red Coral necklace will vary between 14 to 18 grams (one gram equals five carats). So, whenever reference is made to coral necklaces, it will be to those that weigh in at approximately 80 to 90 carats, the sum total weight of Red Coral beads. They are made without a clasp and of sufficient length so that they can be slipped on and off over the head without much fuss. Of all the less expensive types of stone necklaces, the Red Coral necklace seems to be the one that people feel the most. This is partly because it has a definite, strong influence on the physical body as well as on the mind. I have been doing research by observing the effects of the Red Coral necklace on numerous clients, on a continuous basis for over eight years. After having loaned them to large numbers of people, many of whom were adamant in their disbelief in any therapeutic uses for stones or gems, I have become very enthusiastic that this simple instrument, if used correctly, can really be a great friend. Red Coral (Corallium Rubrum) beads are carved from a branch-like calcareous framework of the coral polyp and is formed by the accretion of colonies of these tiny marine invertebrates. The heating influence in Red Coral seems to originate mostly from the red color in combination with the organically structured crystalline aggregate of calcium carbonate (CaCO3). The red color traps the infra red and red aspect of the light spectrum, and this appears to be regenerative as a heating influence. My extensive experiments with White Coral, which has been found to be both calming and strengthening, indicate that it does not stimulate the metabolic heat in the wearer nearly as much as Red Coral. But for high pitta individuals (an Ayurvedic body type), who nonetheless need more physical energy, this can be helpful. With very few exceptions, people have found that by wearing the Red Coral necklace they have experienced more bodily heat and energy. This experience is very much appreciated if the person is of a less energized character or has a low body heat. If the person has a body type that is susceptible to feeling the cold, then she or he will feel very attached to the necklace during cold weather. But those, on the other hand, who do not feel the cold, may actually experience feeling overheated and uncomfortable when wearing the necklace; this discomfort can come within minutes or hours. The individuals who seem to be the most sensitive this way are those who are "pitta". A small percentage of individuals may wear the necklace for a few days before they recognize the heat, and not absolutely everyone is sensitive to the potent influence. The discomfort threshold to body heat is also, of course, related to whether it is a hot day or not, for example. However, even pitta types can assuredly enjoy the coral necklace if they are living in a cold climate or take a trip to a colder place, or if they are physically run down or elderly (i.e., cases when the metabolic energy is not as abundant). Vata and kapha body-types (those who tend to feel the cold), will definitely feel a great benefit from this easy-to-use stimulant to their metabolism and body thermostat. Essentially, all three body-types (kapha, vata and pitta) will profit by use of the coral necklace whenever there is a lack of energy. Strengthening the immune system Very often the coral necklace has gained considerable esteem and appreciation for stimulating the body's immune system, or in helping to clear congestion. On innumerable occasions, when people have felt a cold or flu bug coming on, they have reported they felt, after throwing on the necklace, that it cut short its grip on them. People who have congestion, especially from the flu, report dramatic improvement from wearing the Red Coral necklace. Many individuals who have worn the necklace following an operation claim that it has seemingly sped up their recovery process. Artists who sing have found that it has protected their voice when they have felt a bug coming on. It seems to be especially useful to anemic types, who have a low energy on account of their low blood iron. It is for all these findings that a Red Coral necklace can be a great lifelong friend to call on when in need; one should always be available in the first aid cabinet. Interestingly, I have sold several nine-gem bangles after the occasion of lending out coral necklaces, as it was the tangible experience of wearing this simple, single-stone item that gave the clients an understanding by experience of what the full rainbow of gems might do for them. Slowing down the aging process As we get older we become less able to receive the beneficial radiations emitted by the planets. An example of this is a slow down with advancing age of metabolic and recuperative abilities. Many elderly clients have attested to the ameliorating reduction in this degenerative process by wearing a Red Coral necklace. Some of those living in colder climates have said they never take it off in winter and that because of it, they don't feel the cold nearly as badly. Individuals who have had trauma or operations on their bodies have repeatedly expressed that when they put on the coral necklace they noticed a definite improvement in the rate of progress back to well being. Of course, after the healing of the bodily injury was complete, many found that the time came to take it off; after full recovery the excess in necklace-generated heat was not to their liking. Others kept them on as it helped their somewhat continuously low vitality. There have also been surprising results with women who have excessive difficulties in their monthly cycles who have worn a combination of Red Coral and Pearl necklaces. One lady originally was persuaded to wear this combination for an asthma condition. She noted some improvement on the asthma; but what really amazed her was that her abnormally severe menstrual bleeding, every month since the birth of her child seven years before, had dramatically returned to normal. It never recurred again even after she took off the necklaces. She was actually quite shocked at the result, as she originally thought the whole idea ludicrous; but after the striking improvement she was convinced it had to be the result of one or both of the necklaces. Often people come back from India thinking that the necklace they bought on the street is genuine, only to have it correctly identified later as a glass product. One way of telling the difference between Red Coral and glass is that if you have worn it for over a month and it hasn't lost its glossy surface, you can be pretty sure it is red glass. A lot of red-bead ethnic jewelry from India is red glass. There are also some very impressive-looking plastic imitations around. Red Coral is, incidentally, reactive to acids, so certain jewelry cleaners should not be used on them. The
most potent Red Coral necklaces are deep red in color. But this
does not mean the red tending toward orange is without influence;
it is simply a matter of degree. We have natural Red Coral Necklaces
available from $165 upwards. ( Not to be
confused with the more common white coral necklaces that have
been dyed the same color and look very similar and are sold everywhere
as red coral!!) A recent letter we received: Dear Nick, My wife just reminded me to tell you about the red coral necklace. She loves it ! She finally took it off the other night , because she got too hot , but she has had it on for a solid month , and really finds it works. She has been outside in short sleeves, in perfect comfort , while her much younger companion was "freezing" . I have also noticed warmer feet and hands this season, so it is a big hit with her !
